Bases are those places with a transient population
and are usually used for mining, scientific research or industrial research.
Bases do not include those systems where the only people in the system are the crew of the Stargates in that system.

Waypoint systems have stargates with crews but lack permanent settlements away from
the stargates. These may be the sites of future colonies or uninhabited systems whose only purpose is to
provide a link in the wormhole network.

Uninhabited systems are completely uninhabited. They are generally systems that are explored
remotely, or outposts whose only purpose is to provide future access to unexplored systems that are further from
Sol. Most of these systems are connected to the stargate network with low-capacity links that only allow the
passage of compact space probes.
